Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Every day, gently, I keep the One I love tucked into my heart, the way you keep a warm thought close on a cold morning.
And if I carry goodness with me wherever I go, then the hard things lose their sting. No pain can trouble me then.
This one says to keep the One close every day, and to carry goodness with you.
Nit nit ridai samaal preetam aapnaa means "every day, again and again, keep your Beloved in your ridai," your heart. It is a daily habit, like brushing your teeth.
Jay chaleh gun naal naahee dukh santaapanaa means if you set out carrying gun, goodness, pain cannot torment you.
Think of a warm jacket on a cold walk. The cold is still there, but it cannot bite. The daily habit of remembering the One works like that. The habit itself is the protection.
What good thing do you want to carry with you everywhere you go?
